New York: 9,800 more QHPs, 33.3K Medicaid since 3/31

The 3 largest states with their own exchanges are California, New York and Washington State. WA did not allow an extension period, so that leaves CA & NY...the latter of which has just issued it's first post-3/11 update:

N.Y. latest breakdown Medicaid: 486,689 Private: 421,883 @charlesornstein @charles_gaba

OK, NY was at 453,386 Medicaid and 412,101 QHPs as of 3/31, so this means they've added 9,782 QHPs and 33,303 Medicaid enrollees in the 6 days since then.

That's 1,630 QHPs per day, which is actually very close (97%) to the 1,683/day that they averaged back in February.

IF that's typical nationally (and that's a huge if), then that would suggest around 32K/day or around half a million total by 4/15...which is right at the low end of my new, lowered projection of 7.6M.
